Could anyone please post a photo of a 1991 740 glove box, closeups of both the inside of the latch (the circular thing with the key slot in it), and the strike or gadget it hooks on to on the "roof" of the glove box? Please!?

I've been trying to get mine open for months now, since the latch apparently broke while the box was closed. If someone can provide me with photos of what the two parts of the latch looks like, maybe I can make a better directed attempt at slipping plastic strips, a screwdriver, or whatever in there to get it open.

I'd like to avoid drilling out the lock/latch if possible.
